Chicago based ex-academic who spends most of his time taking pictures of his dog. She is evil, and I love her. I’m never really sure if I’m doing things right, but I’m still here and still trying.

My love of baseball is probably the thing that keeps me most rooted in the United States. I'm a very odd gay man.

My life would be perfect if Chicago and the Chicago Cubs were in Ireland. Can we make this happen?

It’s so weird to see that guy be in the PNC Bank commercials about being boring since Russ Hanneman was the exact opposite.

So many of my neighbors do speaker phone convos outside. I’ve learned so much about their sex lives, who cheated, breakups, health scares, job and family issues. I do not need to know any of these pieces of information

Jurassic Park. I was 5-6ish and hid behind the couch when the T-Rex roared. Don’t even get me started on those raptors opening doors.

Every sports fan everywhere: "[Third stringer] Rusty McOnegoodplay is great. The team would be better off if they started McOnegoodplay" Also every sports fan: "The coach [or GM] is an idiot. I could run this game/team better than them"

One thing that could be a factor in the upcoming election that isn't talked about much is that student loan payments for a lot of people just 3x'd or more. Most of those people would have been Lean to Fully D voters as it is, but Trump just massively increased a portion of the electorate's costs.

I debated on saying Vallas or Wilson. Willie would have been funnier.

If you don't buy our product, you are killing your dog; never going to buy that product. The AI ad is quite awful but the strategy of fear mongering and going "our product is the only way" guarantees I won't buy their product.

If one’s solution to any political problem is “community organizing and meetings”, one’s solution to said political problem is insufferable, not going to work, and likely to enable and empower the most busy body assholes imaginable

Per MC cost is less of a concern to me but being in a field where people will go hog wild if you don’t lock down their expenses, I just have a general attitude of accountability regardless of total cost b/c otherwise people immediately leap to do obviously not proper things.

This is always a weird comment to me. Government agencies require revenue, and the average American treats tax revenue or government fees as some type of crime equal to mass murder.
Bluesky post: Right…cause all of those people in Addison and Oak Brook are gonna take PT. 

It’s a move designed to raise revenue. Full stop.

People have been talking about Houston will eventually be the third most populous city in America for a long time, and they are explicitly talking city because the metro area is nowhere close to Chicago. People absolutely frequently compare cities specifically.

Just got a spam group text from a number who listed names (including mine) and said they were about to send nudes of us all. Blocked the number and everything, but I am reminded of our complete refusal to do anything to address spams and scams and malicious behavior via digital means.

Well the Reds were kicked out of the NL in the 19th Century, so you have reason to distrust their NL status.

A lot of people who get dogs tho k of them as accessories to their lives or roommates need to sometimes spend time with, but in reality, dogs are living creatures with active brains and emotions that pet ownership requires a duty of care to engage empathetically with those needs.

I think the money allows him to buy name recognition. His strengths are that he has a solid-enough track record as governor and that despite being a billionaire, he can talk like a non billionaire, but it remains to be seen if voters will forget he is in fact still a billionaire.

I have this old front page of the Kansas City Star and the top story is ‘Nixon to resign’ and the below the fold story is a story about a woman who was conned by a man and she’s not upset because he “was a marvelous dancer.” And I just love the contrast.
